I had my non stress test this am, and for the first time in 3 appts, Mr. Sam co-operates and shows nice accells on his strip! It was an easy quick appt (kinda, not really quick, but easy, lol)
I am facing a 'nesting' dilemma - with all the heartache we had in the middle of this pregnancy, I am VERY hesitant in buying anything for the baby. We won't need much in the beginning, and Ray can go out and get a car seat after Sam is here and healthy. But I am going to have to break down and buy a couple packs of receiving blankets at the very least, and probably some t's or sleepers, as those things have to be washed before he wears them. I am assuming he will be born a peanut, so will just get a couple of packs of newborn gowns probably.
Is this silly of me? I think it is a little bit of self preservation, but just wait till after he is home with us, no holding me back then!
December 1st tomorrow, I would have never thought we would make it this far and be in such good shape to boot, I am SO thankful! I am hoping December flies by, I am 36 weeks at Christmas, and 37w at new years and it will be time to have a baby before we know it, I can't wait, I am ready to meet this little boy.
Thanks all for all the good thoughts, I will update after our growth scan on Monday, I am hoping to see an almost 3lber then.

Catherine,
It sounds like you and Sam are doing great! I kind of had a nesting problem as well, I was afraid to buy anything for my little boy because of my complete placenta previa... I did begin to break down and buy things for him as I got around 32 weeks, I saved all the receipts. Thankfully I didn't have to return anything. I can't wait to read about your appointment on Monday.

Cathetine - I am so happy that things are going so well for you and Sam! Maybe a good friend or family member will see your message and suprise you with a pack of blankets, some tiny onesies and nighties so you wont have to agonize about buying any. Good work, momma.
